Fundamental and Practical Aspects of Produced Water Treating
This course addresses produced water treatment in upstream operations, from water composition and properties to the quality required for surface discharge, offshore disposal and reinjection. It also covers regulatory requirements, monitoring methods and the treatment technologies used in practice, with attention to emulsions and suspended solids.
